Sunday was a big day for the GWEMAC. Busy day, much to do, many things planned. I’ll start with the last thing first, since it really was my favorite. Except for maybe the Cock Dishes part, mostly because I do so love to laugh, but I’ll explain that later. Rounding out our day was the Eels Show at the Showbox.
If you know me, you know I don’t really like crowds, and I don’t like strangers in my personal space. So, when I tell you that next time I see the Eels, I plan on wearing less restrictive, more breathable, clothing, comfortable shoes, my hair up, and no heavy handbag so I can GIT UP FRONT AND ROCK, you’ll understand how much I enjoyed the show.
We arrived after Eels took the stage, because of the aforementioned busy day. I think, that my favorite part was the Security Guy. He’s our New Boyfriend. Technically, KK called him first, but going to the show was my idea, so I think we’ll have to split him. Tessa and Louise are out of luck unless they want to fight us for him. I don’t know what his name is, but at first I thought he really was just stage security guy, he was a big musclely guy with a shaved head, biker glasses and mutton chops, tattoos and a black tshirt that said SECURITY on it. But then he started to dance. During some songs, he would just stand there, with his arms crossed over his chest, looking out on the audience. Often he would say some kind of non-sequitor in between songs. However, when he started to dance, he really got into it, it was awesome. The dancing sometimes had a theme. One time, he was martial arts dancing. Another, he was boxing and while dancing. Sometimes he sang, and sometimes he played an instrument. But then he’d just go back to standing there. Between songs, he would call the lights up, and E would point people out to him. He’d snap on a new rubber glove and start hi-fiving the people that E pointed out. Once, he very gingerly brought up a heckler guy, being very careful and courteous, and then he bum rushed him off the other side of the stage.
All in all, a great show. E sang a Screamin Jay Hawkins song and you can’t go wrong with that. I’ll talk about the rest of the day later.
Ok, today is Lloyd and Evildeb’s 21st wedding anniversary. Everyone say Happy Anniversary to them.
